The most expensive imitation pearls manufactured in Japan use central beads formed from shell. They can be quite convincing in both appearance and heft, and have been variously called ‘shell pearls’, ‘imitation cultured pearls’, and ‘man-made pearls.’ They are organic, man-made pearls from South Sea oyster shells that rival the finest natural South Sea white pearls. Fabulous luster, virtually indistinguishable by eye from top quality round South Sea or Tahitian pearls. They are also heavy, the same as real South Sea pearls of this size, and they are perfectly round. The Snow Pearls Designer Bracelet was created with captivating, round South Sea Shell Pearls, and gleaming, facted, crystal quartz rondelles. The bracelet is adorned with 925 sterling silver smooth, round beads, and finished with a shiny sterling silver toggle clasp from the Karen Hill Tribes. Just off the side of the clasp, hangs a stunning solid 925 sterling silver disc charm. Just right for engraving a personal name or message.
